Nonlinear Characterization of Thin-Film LiNbO3 Acoustic Filters
Omar Barrera, Bryan T. Bosworth, Taran Anusorn +10
Compact, high-performance components in millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication systems demand new acoustic filter technology at increasingly higher frequencies. Among various promi…
Bimorph Lithium Niobate Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducers
Vakhtang Chulukhadze, Zihuan Liu, Ziqian Yao +8
Piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (PMUTs) are widely utilized in applications that demand mechanical resilience, thermal stability, and compact form factors. Recen…
50 GHz Piezoelectric Acoustic Filter
Omar Barrera, Jack Kramer, Lezli Matto +5
This paper presents significant frequency scaling of acoustic filter technology to 50 GHz. This achievement is enabled by the P3F LiNbO3 multilayer stack, in which piezoelectric th…
62.6 GHz ScAlN Solidly Mounted Acoustic Resonators
Yinan Wang, Byeongjin Kim, Nishanth Ravi +13
We demonstrate a record-high 62.6 GHz solidly mounted acoustic resonator (SMR) incorporating a 67.6 nm scandium aluminum nitride (Sc0.3Al0.7N) piezoelectric layer on a 40 nm buried…
Thermal Endurance of Suspended Thin-Film Lithium Niobate up to 800 °C
Mihir Chaudhari, Lezli Matto, Naveed Ahmed +8
The need for high-temperature piezoelectric microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) requires pushing piezoelectric platforms to their thermal limits. In harsh thermal environments, p…
An 11.7-GHz ScAlN FBAR Filter: Case Study on Scaling Limits and Challenges
Sinwoo Cho, Byeongjin Kim, Lezli Matto +9
This paper reports an 11.7 GHz compact 50 ohm ladder filter based on single layer Scandium Aluminum Nitride (ScAlN) film bulk acoustic resonators (FBARs) with platinum (Pt) electro…
